Many thanks

No recommendations but avoid Goldcar & all their associated companies.

Can highly recommend Centauro book direct on their website, never had a problem with them.

Don’t be put off that they are off the airport a min bus waits outside for you, you can’t miss it, same colours as Centauro 

Only 5 mins away.

Next would be firefly.

As Roland says stay away from gold car, they appear cheap but could end up costing a lot more.

I have hired cars over there for years, so I know a lot about the system.

If you need any further info give me a shout.

You can take out your own annual insurance too, I’ve saved a lot of Euros

Centauro are great. Can be cheaper to book through Rentalcars .com. Check out Centauro website then go on Rental Cars and look out for Centauro logo on the car options.

Good luck

In our experience, Firefly are far worse than Goldcar.

Hired a car now, possibly 20+ times, only ripped off twice. Both times, when we used firefly. Both issues with petrol. Goldcar have always been excellent.
